“The Optimist Creed reminds us to look at the sunny side of everything and make our optimism come true.”

In a world full of noise and negativity, optimism is not ignoring reality. It is choosing hope, kindness, resilience, and encouragement anyway.

Which line from the Optimist Creed speaks to you the most right now?

• “To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.”
• “To think only of the best.”
• “To give every living creature you meet a smile.”
• “To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements.”

Share your favorite line in the comments and tell us why it matters to you.

Avenue of Flags 2026 Renewal - Greene Optimists -

Thanks to your support for this wonderful program! In 2025, we raised over $28,000 that went to support our surrounding communities!  There were over 600 flags flying throughout Beavercreek, Xenia and Fairborn.  We would love to increase that number for 2026 and know we can with your support...

We are so proud of the Beavercreek High School Air Force JROTC/Junior Optimist Club and we are thankful for their partnership with the Avenue of Flags program. Besides learning valuable lessons and promoting patriotism in the community, the youth receive a donation for their hard work - money that supports their programs. It is one BIG way we help "bring out the best in kids"!

We had the honor of joining the Greene Optimist Club this morning at the Toasted Brunch Cafe for their 2025 Avenue of Flags recognition. Cadet Morgan Touchette, our Operations Commander and Junior Optimist International President accepted a donation of $2,816 for our participation in the AoF program this year! We are so thankful to be a part of this group and the amazing work the Optimist Club performs in the community!
